302 #8 cylinder

I have a 1990 bronco with a 302 and 110K miles. It has the same problem, #8 cylinder has a compression of 30 psi. I would love a copy of that article. I'm thinking the best bet is to put in a new engine instead of a valve job. I would like to get a little more torque and hp any suggestions on what I should have done during rebuild, don't want to go crazy on expense? I live in cal and want it to be smog legal and work with my stock computer an FI.
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
